The GeogTaphic Dictionary of Connecticut, wlii(;h constitutes this 
bulletin, is designed to ai<l iu finding any geogiaphic feature ui^ou the 
atlas sheets of that State published by the f". S. Geological Survey. 
h eoiitains all the names given upon those sheets, and no other, 
itiider each name is a brief statement of the charactei- and locality of 
the feature, and opposite is the name of the atlas sheet or sheets ujion 
which it is to be found. 

The atlas sheets ut'on wiiicti the State is re[)resented are the result 
of a survey made at the joint expense of the U. S. (leologieal SUrVey and 
the State of Connecticnt. The scale upon which the sheets are ])ublished 
is 1 :fi2500; that is, a distance of (li;,.">0() inches u])on the ground, or very 
nearl}^ 1 mile, is rei^resented by 1 iiu-h upon the nmp. Relief, or the 
variation of elevation, is lepresented by contour lines or lines of equal 
elevation above mean sea level, these contimi- lines being at vertical 
intervals of 1*0 feetj so that each cont(nir imlieates a level 20 feet higher 
than the one below it. Upon the nrnj) all water bodies, that is, bays, 
Ijouds, rivers, ete,, are represented in bine; the contour lines repre- 
senting the relief, together with the figures showing elevation; are 
printed in brown; and tlie lettering and -all symbols of the works of 
man are ])rinted in black. 

The area of the State is represented u])on 33 sheets, ea<h sheet com- 
l>rising l.j minutes of latitude by 15 minutes of longitude. Kach sheet, 
therefore, includes abont 17A miles from north to south, and about 13 
miles from east to west. Of these sheets only 20 lie entirely or practi- 
cally within the State; the others include ]iortions of the adiacent 
States of Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New York. The following 
is a list of the sheets showing the names assign<Ml t(» tlu'in and their 
limits in latitude and longitmle:

The spelling of the names conforms to the decisions of the V . S. 
Board on Geographic Names, 

Connecticut is one of the original 13 States; it ratified tln^ Constitu- 
tion on January 0, 1788. 

The boundary lines between Rhode Island on the one hand and Massa- 
chnsetts and Connecti('ut on the other are e.\tremely irregular, having 
originated with early colonial charters, and having been modified sub- 
sequently by conventions and agreements, so that it is im])0ssible to 
describe them in any other way than by representing them upon a map 
or by a detailed statement of courses and distances. 

The total area of the State is 4,900 square miles. Of this area 145 
S(piare miles are water suiface. consisting of l)a>s, ponds, riveis, etc.,
